14 KARAT WHITE GOLD

Solid 14 karat white gold — a cool, silvery precious metal that keeps its colour without plating wearing through. Rhodium-plated white gold is common elsewhere; solid white gold is the piece itself, so there is no plating to refresh.

Suited to healed piercings, and a natural match if the rest of your jewellery is silver-toned but you want something that will not tarnish or dull.
